HELLO CEBU!

May 25, 2011 - The day that I arrived in Cebu Mactan International Airport. Yes, I guess my dream is slowly coming true. At last, I'm already in the place that I wanted to go. But I don't came here just for vacation, in fact I want to try to live here independently. I choose Cebu coz I feel this is a very nice and peaceful place. Unlike, the others... uhm, Cebu is a perfect place for me. But before anything else, I left my home in Zamboanga just around 8 o'clock in the morning. My mom and dad sent me to the airport. Since, my flight was still 10am, I had the last 2 hours to talk with my parents. I felt kinda sad... since I won't be able to see them for how many months and I'll surely miss them. But, I'm still thankful that despite everything had happened, they were able to understand my condition and I assure them that I won't give them further headaches. I left the place with  smile on my face and hoping that we will see each other again :)
It's been a week since I arrived here in Cebu. What can I say about this place? ... This is place is AWESOME! There were so many beautiful spots like resorts, hotels, restaurants and others. I can't name them, honestly. As I was inside the taxi, I could see there are lots of tallest buildings, very clean and organized. The "Cebuanos" are very nice and friendly. We went to SM City Cebu and had our lunch at Mang Inasal. Ughh.. my trolly was really disturbing. After that, we relaxed for a while in my aunt's boarding house. Then we went to Metro Gaisano and we bought some personal belongings. The next day, since my aunt was on her day off, she taught me about the transportation, yeah I wondered about the "numbers" placed on the top or sides of the public transportation. Then, we had some roundabouts in some "famous" places here in Cebu City. We also had a trip on Asiatown IT Park, wherein there are lots of call center companies and the place is very relaxing. 

Then morning came, I woke up very early, took up a heavy breakfast, and prepared myself for job hunting. But unfortunately,  I realized that I'm not yet ready for a job. So, I told my parents that I'll undergone further training. Thankfully, they agreed. So, I went to Excel Asia to inquire regarding their training program for call center. I had my initial interview just I arrived and fortunately, I passed the interview and I'm ready to submit myself for training.Yesterday, we went to Colegio del Sto. Nino. I was amazed by their church. It's kinda old on the external view but when I went inside... it was very lovely. The church had some paintings on the walls and at the center, there are a lot of statues of some saints. I told myself that someday I'll bring my family here and have fun. I took some shots but unfortunately, I wasn't able to bring my USB chord so I can't upload some photos. Darn!

Anyway, there are still some places that I want to go... I hope I'm going to have fun here in Cebu!!

Hanggang dito muna!
